Precautions

*Do not attempt to open the drive and service it. Removing the cover may cause exposure to harmful laser beam and electrical voltage. User is recommended to get service by returning the defected drive back to the original vendor where the drive is purchased.

•Use the original packing for transporting the drive or sending back for service. The original packing were designed and tested to protect your drive under rough condition.

•Do not put this CD-RW drive in direct sunlight, on heat units, or near electrical appliances which draw large amounts of current.

•Use a soft, dust-free cloth for cleaning your drive. Keep your drive away from moisture or liquids including water, cleaning-fluids, or solvents.

•Keep your CD-R/RW disc clean. Using soft, dust-free cloth to clear the surface on the CD-R/RW disc before recording will improve the burning data integrity.

•Do not drop or jolt the drive.

•Keep the area around the CD-RW drive clean from dust, smoke, and other contaminants.

•The copyright law of each country governs the reproduc- tion of copyrighted works. The person using the CD-RW drives may be liable for its use to make unauthorized copies of copyrighted works.

•It will increase the success rate for copying the data from HDD, instead of copy the data by “copy on the fly mode”. Therefore we recommend user reserving sufficient buffer spate (at least 800 MB).
